Rakuyu

Everything was great but a slope needed to climb to get in the hotel. The private bath was wonderful with view of kawaguchiko which you can see in the room as well. The iced beer and some snacks were Recommended during the private bath.

Rakuyu is a beautiful hotel with amazing views. The hospitality is great, the rooms are big, cosy and comfortable. The breakfast spread while relatively small, serves quality food. The public bath is clean and a must-try. Only thing to note is that it's quite a steep walk to the hotel. Other than that, our stay was fabulous!

The place was peaceful and quiet. They provided good breakfast,afternoon tea and cocktails to all the guests, that was surprise us , we enjoyed the view and environment of the hotel, the great view of Fuji mountain and the lake were totally refreshed me. The hot spring was cleanse and the view of the hot springs area were very relaxing

The hotel is located on a high ground, without a private car it will be hassle to carry the luggages up there. I paid a room for ¥87,720 per night (accommodate 4 persons) wishing to have a spacious and comfortable room. The room I had was simply a double room with 2 futons. If only had I knew, I'd have booked 2 double rooms instead so you don't have to be overcrowded in one room. Breakfast and food in the lounge was limited. No refills when they run out, so you should be the first comer for that.

The hotel is a once a lifetime experience. The hotel is located on top of a steep hill next to the tourist site Ropeway. If you miss the shuttle bus and arrive at night, the walk up the hill can be physically demanding especially during winter with tree barks scattered and no lighting. But after we survive the physical journey, the hotel is really a must visit gem. The view from the room is amazing. Every room faces the lake. The room is traditional Japanese room with nice tatami mats and buckwheat quality pillow. The highlight has to be the breakfast and the onsen. The breakfast and dinner need to be reserved in advance (must include breakfast when you book the room). Food is fresh and chef quality. The onsen faces the lake so is really special experience. You can also visit the ropeway in the morning. Service is also excellent. The team is responsive and also helped us order dinner as there are no food nearby. Overall this is a must visit hotel for anyone who wants authentic Japanese experience and next to the lake. The breakfast and onsen is also a must when you are there.

Quite a bit of walk from kawaguchiko station and the slope up is very steep (maybe a 45 degrees incline). Quite dark too at night. Recommend to drive, otherwise be prepared for a workout just to get up. But the lake view from the room is great and it’s close to the attractions by the lake

a very good hotel with good view and vibe

房間大，酒店也非常好！温泉池稍微小了點點！ 酒店望出去就是河口湖！丫頭非常喜歡。

Огромное спасибо отелю за наш отдых! Тот случай, когда реальность лучше ожиданий! Нам удалось отлично отдохнуть здесь: встретить закат в юкатах в просторном номере с видом на великолепное озеро, обрамлённое зелёными холмами. Были очень приятно удивлены, что нам, как гостям, предоставили бесплатный завтрак и накануне мы еще попали на коктейльный вечер: разнообразные закуски, суп, морепродукты, чипсы, сыр, фрукты и т.п., а также в свободном доступе барная коллекция напитков, лёд, лайм, лимон, т.ч. вы можете самостоятельно сделать себе коктейль или просто налить вина. Это было чудесно! Перед сном я отправилась в общественный онсен и была там одна :) Мне понравилось посидеть в горячем источнике после долгой прогулки. Также была возможность зайти в сауну (но я не любитель). После вкусного ужина и горячего источника мне прекрасно спалось в уютной кроватке. В номере тихо (+ есть доп. дверь м/у прихожей и комнатой), удобные принадлежности для сна. Утром нас ждал шикарный вид на озеро и шикарный завтрак! Хотелось бы выразить большую благодарность персоналу отеля за этот опыт.
